“... A obra organizada pelas Professoras Jaíma Pinheiro de Oliveira e Tania Moron Saes Braga, reúne textos que avaliam diferentes aspectos do desenvolvimento infantil, com as contribuições que se situam na interface entre a saúde e a educação. Nessa análise, embora cada capítulo aborde aspectos específicos, os autores tiveram a preocupação de buscar a interação de diferentes temáticas tratadas, de modo a favorecer a visão global do processo evolutivo. É visível também o esforço para que concepções sociais acerca do desenvolvimento infantil e práticas educativas destinada a crianças componham o quadro de referências para análise de questões específicas. A presença de capítulos que tratam de questões relativas à família, educação infantil, e serviços de atendimentos em saúde mostra claramente a preocupação em contextualizar convenientemente o fenômeno do desenvolvimento social. O leitor poderá fazer sua leitura nessa perspectiva, interpretando o desenvolvimento humano como um fenômeno cuja constituição depende também de construções sociais…” (Sadao Omete)

Culturally Sustaining Pedagogies raises fundamental questions about the purpose of schooling in changing societies. Bringing together an intergenerational group of prominent educators and researchers, this volume engages and extends the concept of culturally sustaining pedagogy (CSP)—teaching that perpetuates and fosters linguistic, literate, and cultural pluralism as part of schooling for positive social transformation. The authors propose that schooling should be a site for sustaining the cultural practices of communities of color, rather than eradicating them. Chapters present theoretically grounded examples of how educators and scholars can support Black, Indigenous, Latinx, Asian/Paci...
"Set in Chandler, Arizona, during the city's infamous 1997 migrant sweeps, Ocotillo Dreams delivers a wallop that resonates in today's volatile immigration debate. But this is no run-of-the-mill border-debate tale. In this captivating first novel, author Melinda Palacio skillfully weaves a story of politics, intrigue, love, and trust. Isola, a young woman who inherits her mother's Chandler home, relocates from California only to find that her mother had lived a secret life of helping undocumented immigrants and that one such immigrant apparently was involved with her. Isola must confront her own confusion and sense of loyalty in a strange and overtly hostile environment. As she gets to know her mother from clues left behind, she grapples with issues of identity and belonging that eventually lead her to explore her life's meaning and to reconnect with her roots."--Jacket.

We live in a time of educational transformations towards more 21st century pedagogies and learning. In the digital age children and young people need to learn critical thinking, creativity and innovation and the ability to solve complex problems and challenges. Traditional pedagogies are in crisis and many pupils experience school as both boring and irrelevant. As a response educators and researchers need to engage in transforming education through the invention of new designs in and for learning. This book explores how games can provide new ideas and new designs for future education. Computer games have become hugely popular and engaging, but as is apparent in this book, games are not magical solutions to making education more engaging, fun and relevant. Games and Education explores new designs in and for learning and offer inspiration to teachers, technologists and researchers interested in changing educational practices. Based on contributions from Scandinavian researchers, the book highlights participatory approaches to research and practice by providing more realistic experiences and models of how games can facilitate learning in school.
